Default Headlights and indicators

Alright, so my headlights are rubbish and I want to change them, including the
indicators.

I live in Sweden so you will have to be able to ship them here.

Send me photos of the headlights and tell me if it's Xenon, halogen or LED.


Thanks

I am guessing that you have a Phase 1 model with the single lens H4 bulb and want to upgrade to the twin lens Phase 2 headlights?

Just to make you aware, that the lenses on the headlight are different between right hand drive and left hand drive cars. You might have a problem when you take your car for the annual besikting

I've got a Phase 2 car, V40 1.8GDI 2001 and I live in Sweden so it's left hand drive.

My headlights are old and bad, one of the headlights reflector is loose, like you can wobble the whole reflector inside the headlight.

I just want to get a new pair of headlight that's better than mine. And indicators would also be good to replace since mine are rubbish.
